John 8:37-40 Jesus Forgives the Woman Caught in Adultery

37 I know you are Abraham’s descendants. Yet you are ready to kill me, because you have no room for my word.

38 I am telling you what I have seen in the Father’s presence, and you do what you have heard from your father.”

39 “Abraham is our father,” they answered.
“If you were Abraham’s children,” said Jesus, “then you would do the things Abraham did.

40 As it is, you are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things.
